Bacteriological hazards of disposable bedpan systems.
A system using disposable papier maché bedpans and urinals in hospital has advantages of ease of handling for the nurse and cleanliness for the patient. Disposal of the bedpans and their contents is by destruction and flushing to waste. Some bacteriological hazards of this process in the Haigh Sluicemaster and J.M.L. Clinimatic machines are assessed, particularly the dispersal of the contents i...
متن کاملOn malfunctioning software
Artefacts do not always do what they are supposed to do, due to a variety of reasons, including manufacturing problems, poor maintenance, and normal wear-and-tear. Since software is an artefact, it should be subject to malfunctioning in the same sense in which other artefacts can malfunction. Yet, whether software is on a par with other artefacts when it comes to malfunctioning crucially depend...
متن کاملAnaesthesia Breathing Systems
Anaesthesia Breathing System (formerly known as anaesthesia Breathing Apparatus or Anaesthesia Breathing Circuit) is an interface between the anaesthetic machine and the patient. They evolved over 160 years from the open systems used by Morton to the present day closed systems using carbon dioxide absorbents. The main purpose of these systems is to deliver the required oxygen and anaesthetic ga...

It is made up of multiple components which include; Fresh gas outlet This connects the breathing system to the anaesthetic machine Breathing tubes These allow gas to travel to and from the patient Reservoir bag This allows for visualisation of respiration, accumulation of oxygen and anaesthetic gases and provide a method of ventilation. Adjustable pressure limiting (APL) valve Allows fo...
متن کاملAnaesthetic Breathing Systems
The function of breathing is to maintain a supply of oxygen to the lungs for oxygenation of the tissues, and to remove carbon dioxide from the body. When used for spontaneous ventilation, a breathing circuit must enable a patient to breathe satisfactorily without significantly increasing the work of breathing or the physiological deadspace. It must also conduct inhalational anaesthetic agents t...
